Analysis and control for a new reconfigurable parallel mechanism
Abstract
This article proposes a new reconfigurable parallel mechanism using a spatial overconstrained platform. This proposed mechanism can be used as a machine tool. The mobility is analyzed by Screw Theory . The inverse kinematic model is established by applying the closed-loop equation. Next, the dynamic model of the presented mechanism is established by Lagrange formulation. To control the presented mechanism, some controllers have been used. Based on this dynamic model, the fuzzy-proportion integration differentiation (PID) controller is designed to track the trajectory of the end effector. For each limb, a sliding mode controller is applied to track the position and velocity of the slider. Finally, some simulations using ADAMS and MATLAB are proposed to verify the effectiveness and stability of these controllers.
